The best of the series so far!
The following ratings are out of 5:
Romance: 💚🖤💙❤️💜
Heat/Steam: 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Story/Plot: 📕📗📙📘📔
World building: 🌏🌍🌎🌏🌎
Character development: 😠😚😁☺️
Narration: 🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙
Narration Type: Solo Narration
The heroine: Maeve - she is a computer programmer who is cataloguing antiquities and works in a mansion for a man named Sotiris. Though she doesn’t like him. He has this statue of a man with wings, whom she talks to when she is lonely. When Sotiris is around she stays out of his way, but often sees him yelling at the statue and berating it. She thinks it is very odd behavior, but so is the fact that she is so nice to the statue to try to make up for the behavior of Sotiris.
The Hero: Dragan - he is an ancient warrior who, along with his four brothers in arms, fought for the sorcerer Nicodemus against the evil sorcerer Sotiris. Whenever Nicodemus was about to win against Sotiris, Sotirus would run away, but they were about to win against Sotiris in a final battle when he enacted a curse which turned the four warriors into stone statues and sent them to the four corners of the earth.
The Story: Maeve was surprised when she broke the curse and Dragan broke through his stone and came to life. Though they had to leave immediately and run from Sotiris. They end up going on a cross country journey to find Nicodemus and see if the rest of the stone warriors had also broken the curse.
I actually liked this story the best of the four so far. Though I don’t know why. I think it was just something about the story and the romance that I got pulled into faster than the other three books. I also liked the characters the best so far. Dragan was strong and handsome and of course he was the only one with wings. He had a good backstory and you had to feel for him from the beginning, especially knowing he was awake inside that statue being taunted by Sotiris all those years.
This book was told in multiple points of view via Solo narration and was narrated by Tor Thom. He has done this entire series and I really like his voice and his narration style. He has a great deep voice and his female voice doesn’t bother me like some. Of course with his deep voice, his female voice is deep as well, but it is easy to tell who is talking at any given time.

An evil curse locked four warriors in stone. Statues for centuries, only a pure woman who could see beyond the physical could free them. One such woman was Maeve Collins. She approached Dragan's statue with compassion and spoke to it as if it were a real person. How was she to know that he was real, wings and all? Once freed, Dragan needs to connect with his brotherhood - the great sorcerer, Nicodemus, and the others who were now free from their stone prisons. However, the wicked sorcerer who cursed them in the first place won't make their reunion so easy. He's desperate to take over the world, by any means necessary, and Nico and his warriors are the only beings standing in his way. Luckily, Dragan and his friends never shy away from a fight. With a hot and sexy romance developing and an encroaching battle on the horizon,
Dragan
is a read
not to be missed!
Some of the things I liked were:
⚔️ Dragan of course. Who can resist an incredibly chiseled wall of muscle with a glorious face and a personality to match? He was strong and kind and passionate and fearsome and courageous and... I could definitely go on, but you should really read the book to find out why he was so easy to love.
⚔️ the magical elements. I love the idea of curses and legends and the like. I'm eager to read Nico's story because I'm sure even more magic will be found in it.
⚔️ Dragan's back story. My heart broke for the hero that no one cared for. He risked his life, day after day, to keep people safe because 'that was his job', but there was no appreciation. No kindness. No sincerity. Then he finds fellow warriors, creates a family, only to be cursed for millenia and end up in another world. His luck sucked! I believe the author did an amazing job of developing this character. He had a vulnerability to him that I really appreciated, despite his overwhelming strength, making him a hero in every sense of the word.
If you are a lover of the unrealistic and yet fantastic, you won't want to pass on this story. It's got magic out the ying yang, an inevitable love story, interesting characters, and a segue into what comes next. That epilogue really got my attention!!

5 Warrior Stars!!
Dragan Fiachna is the last of Nick’s missing warriors who is trapped by Sotiris at his lake house with a sweet, shy, introvert named Maeve. Mae works for Sotiris, as his antiquities caregiver. Mae has always been drawn to the beautiful winged statue, so she spends much of her solitude time talking and reading to him. She doesn’t understand why Sotiris rants and raves at the winged statue when he occasionally visits, after Sotiris’ latest visit Mae offers comfort to Dragan even though she acknowledges she’s talking to a stone statue. Her devotion, compassion, and care for the statue finally breaks Dragan’s curse and he’s finally free. Now he needs to find Nico/Nick and his Warrior brothers Damian, Kato, and Gabriel.
Dragan: Dragan is a fierce warrior, he’s loyal and definitely deadly with his deadly winged weaponry yet he has a underlining sadness. He wasn’t treated well as a young boy, he was lonely and knew nothing about love, a gentle touch, or companionship until he answered Nico’s call to join him and the others. He finally understood companionship and loyalty. Nico and his Warrior brothers gave him something he never knew and for that they have his undying love and loyalty for eternity.
Maeve: She’s sassy, highly intelligent and very resourceful. Yet she’s also very shy, innocent, and sort of a introvert. When Dragan was freed she was never afraid of him, she knew to her sole that he would protect her, even after he shows her how deadly he can be she stuck to her convictions. Because of Dragan’s horrid past he thinks of himself as a monster, which makes him wary for Mae to see him in his winged warrior form but Mae shows him nothing but loyalty and compassion, she makes him believe he can be loved and more....he deserves to be loved! Dragan and Mae are soon on the run from Sotiris and hunting for Nico/Nick. Thanks to Mae’s mad IT skills and resourcefulness they are getting closer to Nico/Nick but not without a few bumps in their journey, all the while growing closer.
It was great catching up with Damian/Casey, Kato/Grace, and Gabriel/Hana. I really want to know (Nick’s assistant) Lili’s story....very intriguing!!! She is clearly a supernatural but what!? Nick is VERY protective of her, and there’s clearly something disturbing in her past, I need to know! Now that all of Nick’s warriors are free and together again we’re getting closer to the final confrontation between Nick and Sotiris.
Lastly, in DBR’s signature teaser ending Nick seeks out someone from his past, she’s a mystery, a mystery woman Lili clearly wasn’t too keen on.....we’ll just have to wait and see. A very interesting development indeed! As usual DBR gives her readers a compelling, fast paced, sexy, and exciting storyline with fantastically intriguing beautiful characters. I can’t wait for more!!!!!

Dragan is book 4 in the Stone Warriors series and I loved it from beginning to end. I have enjoyed all the books in this series but I have to say this one was my favorite. Dragan and Mae were fantastic together. Their chemistry was awesome and they made a great team. Mae is the best h of this series. She's smart, loving, strong but innocent which was an endearing combination. The reunion with his fellow warriors and Nico/Nick had me in tears. There's action with the overall arc still in play with the final show down coming soon. Now for that ending OMG!!!! Finally it's Nick's turn and I can't express how excited I am. I have been dying for his story since we found out that Cyn's former lover isn't human. That ending left me with so many questions, who is this mystery woman Nick longs for, why does he say she appears guilty when he finds her and finally why did Lili keep information from him. I really hope the wait isn't long.

I absolutely know when I pick up a book by this author that it’s going to be a wild ride, rife with action and of course full to the brim with romance. Finally we get the last of the cursed Warriors and Dragan is a character wholly unique in that he’s brave yes , fearless without a doubt but desperate for someone to finally, actually want him monstrous wings and all ! Step forward Maeve who has deliberately cut herself off from family and loved ones in order to work for an employer who well frankly she really doesn’t like that much. Unfortunately for Maeve she’s been working for a vicious Sorcerer with no compassion and a very evil plan to finally get rid of his enemies once and for all. Dragan is under a truly nasty curse with rather particular needs to break it and Maeve is just the woman to fulfill those parameters but how will she react when what looks like a Gargoyle turns out to be a man trapped in stone ?
If like me you’v enjoyed this authors Vampires in America series than this crossover is a delight to read. It had previously been revealed that Sotiris had secreted Dragan away but that hadn’t stopped Nico and the other three Warriors looking for him. Now I mentioned that there’s a connection here with the V.I.P. books because these stories take place in the same world but even more exciting is the fact that Nico is an ex of Cyn the woman who owns and yes I do mean owns the heart of the biggest and baddest Vampire of them all, the wholly gorgeous Raphael ! I’d actually have enjoyed a little more Vampire action in this book but still cannot fault this amazing story that was oh so satisfying and now all I want is to discover who the mysterious woman that will bring Nico to his knees is. You will love Dragan because he’s a male that truly deserves a happy ending and Maeve turned out to be a very courageous woman unafraid of self sacrifice. This gets a big recommendation from me for the imaginative world building but most of all the diverse characters who had me cheering them on.
This voluntary take is of a copy I requested from Netgalley and my thoughts and comments are honest and I believe fair

3.25 Stars
Of all the books I've read in this series this one was the most disappointing.
At least half, if not more, was them driving and staying in hotels.
Almost NO action nor suspense until the last 10%.
Very repetitive. I really struggled to finish it.
Tons of editing errors, which really shocked me.
Add to all that, the price of this one is very expensive and the last book, which I have not purchased, is over 7$. I don't know why they have gotten more expensive. They definitely are NOT better written.
D.B. Reynolds was one of my favorites. But after the last few books I've read in this series and her Vampires in America books, I hate to say she has fallen down the ladder.
I don't know if she is tired of both these series or what, but I'm not investing anymore of my time in them.
I do have some books in her sci-fi series. They are older books of hers. And eventually I will read them.
But for now, I'm taking a hiatus from her writng.

A nice PRN romance without useless angst and without stupidity on either side!
I enjoyed both Dragan and Mae's behaviour!
Mae was a withdrawn girl who wasn't stupid and who did intelligent reasonings, while Dragan was inteligent enough not to be an overbearing alpha idiot. He listen to her reasonings and didn't suffocate her, but was protective just enough!
She recognized his physical superiority, but also appreciated his intelligence.
So, thank to both of them being that way the story progressed in a linear way and dangerous situations were resolved in a logical way. Thank God! :)
A nice addition to the series, even if some things were not explained and are left hanging, but I suppose the author was saving some things for the next book! The last pages of the book point to Nick's story! And there's a misterious woman... *wink*

It’s been awhile since I dived into this world, but it didn’t take me long to catch up. New readers...go read Raphael and that series, then make the way to the Stone warriors series, you can thank me later. Now...series lovers get ready all we’ve come to expect from this author is here and more plot development but not as much I hoped but we get glimpses to Nicks future hopefully and I’m stoked! I so desperately want him to get a HEA, while I love his banter with Cyn I’m beyond ready to see his story, there’s so much there to be uncovered.
Let me focus, this follows Maeve and Dragan, who while not my favorite couple they weren’t dreadful. You like both characters and certainly root for their victories and love. The characters work well together and while we get a brief mention of my fav duo you won’t see much of our Lord Raphael or Cyn(cue the sad music).
I really enjoyed this and despite a full schedule made time for a few late night chapters. Series lovers, it’s a must read!!

And then there was one.
Sorcerer Nicodemus Katsaros experienced his greatest sorrow when his four warrior brothers were cursed by his enemy Sorcerer Sotiris. Cursed to be imprisoned in stone, always awake and able to see and hear everything in their presence, but unable to do more. Only a minute loophole gives them the illusion their curse could be broken, under the right conditions. Centuries have come and gone with no hope until recently.
Three have been able to break their curse. Damian, magician. Kato, god of war. Gabriel, vampire. Only one remains: Dragan, blessed by the Goddess, winged dragonish warrior.
This is his story.
* * * *
This is the 4th installment in the "Stone Warriors" series that, on the surface, could be read as a standalone for the content, but, this series builds off previous installments so I'd highly suggest and recommend that any new reader needs to start from the beginning.
Dragan Fiachna & Maeve Collins. It's the well used trope of a hero who has experiences deep dark isolation and segregation, both as a human and rock statue, until one person has the strength, ability, and just plain luck to change status quo. To break the curse "Dragan Fiashna, heir to the curse of royal blood, a horror hiding behind a beautiful face . . . you shall remain locked in stone until a maden, untested and pure, shall find grace in your beast and saety in your nightmare." Who better than a gamer and computer hack as we all know gamers battle horrific characters on a daily basis and are most often virgins, or so I'm told. lol
On the whole I appreciated the overall story though it just didn't hit all the bells and whistles for me. Not sure why. I mean the lead up to Dragan & Maeve becoming a couple was cute and their goal to reunite Dragan with Nick, aka Nicholas Katsaros, was fun. I even got the giggles over Dragan experiencing modern technology, foods, and creature comforts for the first time. Got a little petrified if Mae's computer hacking skills are semi accurate with the end thought that I need to beef up my own internet safety & privacy. Could have done without scenes that didn't really add anything to the overall story, example father and teenage son, while inhaled cameo scenes with Raphael & Cyn. There was just something that haad me wanting more. Even I can't define what that something could have been.
I love this author and have her on my auto buy list, but I'm not a biggie fan of this series though a fan, yes. As a big time shapeshifter dragon lover fan, I did feel a slight letdown that this installment wasn't a great as I had hoped but Mae's character did make up for a portion of that feeling. Dragons be mean, fierce, and dangerous when provoked. Though parts of this story did apply that premise and other scenes did feature the other side of such a personality - the gooey loving side - I just felt, on the whole, the author nailed the overall dragon concept.
To add. There is a mild teaser for the next installment which will FINALLY feature the main guy of the series itself. Nicodemus Katsaro. Fingers crossed that Raphael will FINALLY get a little karma satisfaction in the process. Those two really need to get over themselves, but then again, maybe not as I've enjoyed snacking on my popcorn watching those two clash. Again and again and again.

ARC received for review
4.5 stars
Dragan is the last warrior trapped in stone. Maeve and her kind, pure heart sets him free. Then they are on the run from the evil sorcerer. Maeve puts her computer smarts and eavesdropping skills to the test to find Nico and the other warriors. After a long drive filled with danger, they find Dragan's warrior brothers. Epic battle ensues, and the bad guy gets away yet again (that's the reason for the missing half star). It's a little okay cause it needs to be Nico's story where Sotiris gets everything that's coming to him. It was great seeing all the previous peeps again, plus a great epilogue with a little sneak into the next book.

Dragan is the last warrior trapped in stone. Maeve and her kind, pure heart sets him free. Then they are on the run from the evil sorcerer. Maeve puts her computer smarts and eavesdropping skills to the test to find Nico and the other warriors. After a long drive filled with danger, they find Dragan's warrior brothers.

D.B. Reynolds returns to her exciting and magical Stone Warriors series with Dragan, a man destined to be alone not only because of his life commitment to battle, but because of the stone curse his enemy cast upon him and his brothers in arms.
Maeve Collins is a smart and kind computer geek with an affinity for antiques, hired by Dragan’s enemy to catalogue his collection of artifacts. None captivated her the most than the magnificent winged stone warrior who she talked to sitting by his taloned wing as if he could hear and respond.
The amazement when he broke free was soon replaced with a fierce determination to help him find his warrior family. She expected to be chased, but not fall in love. Can Dragan and Maeve find Nick Katsaros and his brothers before Sotiris catches up to them? And will they be able to defeat him?
Reynolds delivers an exciting and sizzling romance between Dragan and Maeve. The suspense as they race across the country is tangible while the romance scorches the pages. Dragan is a compelling hero whose protectiveness is on par with his devotion and attention to “his Maeve.” It was so very easy to fall in love with him despite being depicted as a monster. And even though there was some self-doubt on Mae’s part, she was his perfect match.
The plot was hooking and I loved catching up with the rest of the couples from previous books and getting a cameo from a beloved couple from Reynolds’ Vampires in America. Reynolds is a master of the paranormal genre and delivers a compulsively readable story. I can’t wait to read the next installment.
Dragan is book #4 of the Stone Warriors series by author D.B. Reynolds. It’s told from various points of view with an introduction into the next book.

OhEmGeeeeee!
Where has this series been hiding?!?!?! I just finished reading Dragan and I am hooked! I fell in love with sweet, kind hearted Maeve right from the start. She’s a nerdy heroine with a sweet disposition, who’s smart and funny. What’s not to like? And Dragan wormed his way into my heart pretty easily with his protectiveness and old school honor. The more we get of him, the more I want to follow Maeve’s lead and hug him and promise to be BFFs forever!
Lol, in all seriousness, these characters and this story were so, so good. This was an action packed, insta-love paranormal romance that ticked off all my likes and didn’t slow down once. With powerful warriors, sorcerers, magic, ends of the world danger and epic romance, I was rooting for not only the MCs but also their buddies from the word go. I’m definitely going to have to read the rest of the books because the other guys and their bad a$$ ladies definitely piqued my interest. Not having read the other books, I thought Nico and his assistance, Lily would have been a good match, but that ending threw me for a loop. Not sure how I feel about that but fingers crossed Lily gets her own story soon. I really liked her :)
I want to say this can be read as a standalone but with intersecting characters and an ongoing plot, I think reading the others, in order, would help build the story up better. Still, I highly enjoyed this one and this is book #4 in the series. I did’t feel lost or bombarded with details, the story flowed really good and you got just enough info to keep you in the loop. I would definitely recommend if you love paranormal reads, this one was HAWT!

Not my favorite Stone Warrior book and can not really say why, but anything written by DB gets full stars.

HI. How is this book published? Cause I can't find it anywhere.

I'm sorry to say, again, but I'm not enjoying this series as much as the Vampires in America and I only keep on reading it because of the crossover with the VIA. I find the concept - warriors trapped in statues through the centuries, only able to come back to men in flesh through a special woman to each of them - very riveting, but the magic part of it, is not working for me.
However, it was touching seeing the 4 warriors and Nico/Nick, finally, reunited. It was such a touching moment.
The end had me intrigued.

Another great addition to this series. I love learning about each of the warriors and who they are paired with. The story has a strong male lead and just as strong female lead and the adventure they go on together is wonderfully done.

Dragan Faichna is the last of the four warriors to escape his stone prison thanks to adorable computer geek, Maeve Collins.
An unassuming introvert and antiques expert, Maeve is hired to basically house-sit for a powerful man named Sotiris. Little does Maeve know that Sotiris is actually an evil sorcerer and his collection of priceless antiques are actually very powerful magical artifacts. But none are as important at the handsome winged statue of a man with a sword.
But Sotiris' estate is in the middle of nowhere and after three years with no one else but the strange statue to keep her company, Maeve begins to feel like her job is a little too isolated, even for her. She wants to quit, but can't deny how attached she's become to the statue and how sad she would be if she couldn't see it again.
It is Maeve's recognition of her feelings for this inanimate object that breaks the spell and frees Dragan. But as the stone crumbles, alarms blare, alerting Sotiris and the authorities. Maeve knows they have limited time before the cops come knocking.
Her feelings and curiosity lead her to make a rash decision; she can't let Dragan get arrested. At least not without some answers. Who is he? Why does he look so much like the broken statue?
Once Dragan explains the truth about Sotiris and the curse, the two are off on a road trip adventure to find Dragan's three brothers so they can be united to stop Sotiris once and for all.
Assuming Sotiris doesn't kill them first.
I wish I had started this series with book one, but only because DRAGAN was tons of fun. High octane car chaises, gun fights, computer hacking, evil sorcerers, magic, and hot adult scenes coiled in this super fun romance novel that mixes fantasy and contemporary together in a beautiful fusion.
My favorite part though was Maeve. It's been a while since I've really connected with a heroine, but her character hit the target for me. She's a gamer, and loner, and a bit of a dork, but she's also very intelligent and can think on her feet. She was someone I'd love to get to know in real life.
Reynolds was a new-to-me author but I'll definitely be looking for more of her books now.

This is the fourth book in the Stone Warrior's series.. Each book is about a different couple but there is a continuing story arc that continues through the series so it is best read in order.
This particular book is about Dragon Fiachna, the second born son of royalty that was blessed by a goddess and granted some gifts. He was cursed into a stone statue for millennia until Maeve unknowingly sets him free. From there their adventure begins.
Dragan is new to the modern world so he follows Maeve's lead most of the time but he is still sexy while he does it. He doesn't let anything hold him back and he appi9les himself to learn as much as he can quickly. Maeve is introverted and shy but she comes out of her shell to help Dragan . I enjoyed watching her character grow as she helped Dragan.
I have been enjoying this series. All the books begin in a similar fashion, with women freeing the stone warriors but then they each have their own adventure after that. There wasn't a lot of action in this story compared to others in the series but I didn't really mind it. We do get to see more of the warriors once they are reunited with each other in this book. It was nice to see them interacting with each other. They way this book left off, I know there will be at least one more book in the series and I am looking forward to it.

Maeve had taken a job cataloging artifacts and treasures for a very unpleasant man, Mr. Sotiris. But she loved her job and there was a beautiful statue that she talked to all the time, the statue that Dragan had been cursed to live inside for all of eternity until someone could break the curse and release him. Mr. Sotiris was more than he seemed to be and very dangerous but she just thought he was strange for raging at the statue all the time.
Maeve would sit and talk to the statue of Dragon all the time and Dragon loved the company even though she had no idea he was actually there. When the stone statue cracked and broke and Maeve broke the curse, Dragon was set free. At first Maeve didn't believe he was actually inside the statue but she came to quickly believe Dragan was telling the truth. Knowing the Mr. Sotiris would probably know somehow that the statue had broken, Maeve and Dragon took a few artifacts and left before he could come home. She was really good with computers and had excellent ways to block anyone from tracking her phone or laptop so they were safe on the road for a while.
The first thing Dragan wanted to do was find Nicodemus or see if he was still alive. Maeve found him online and they set out to go to where he lived, which would take a couple of days by car. On their way to meet up with his old sorcerer friend they find themselves in danger from vampires but Dragan is more than enough of a warrior to take them on and defeat them. But it's obvious that if her old boss finds out where they are, they'll be in real hot water. The danger is real and one mess up will have that danger at their door.
Maeve and Dragan get a lot closer and their romance was nice, but it didn't move me. I wanted sparks, fireworks or just something more but I just didn't feel it with them. Dragan is a nice guy and Maeve is a smart, nice woman but they didn't seem like they fit together to me.
This is the 4th books in this series but it's the first book that I've read. I didn't feel lost or feel like I was missing anything and I read this just fine but I might go back and read the other books just to catch up. Dragon's friends are awesome, I really liked them and their mates. The secondary characters are great so I'm looking forward to getting to know them a little better. Sotiris is an evil man hell bent on causing them to suffer but I have a feeling that he's not gonna get his wish as the series goes on.
I liked this book but didn't love it, but I think I will read the other books in this series.

Dragan Fiachna is the last of Nick’s missing warriors and he is trapped in on of Sotiris many houses. Maeve, an employee of Sotiris, has always been drawn to the beautiful winged statue in the statue hall. While Sotiris rants and raves at it, she offers it comfort and peace, even though she knows its justs stone. Her care for the statue finally breaks the curse and Dragan is finally free. Maeve uses her hacking ability to help Dragan to find Nick.
Dragan and Maeve are probably my favorite couple of this series. I really loved their interactions and care for each other. You could feel the emotions from the beginning and it was perfect. Maeve was smart, sassy, and resourceful. I quite enjoyed her and how she dealt with everything. She was never afraid of Dragan and knew he would protect her, even after he shows how deadly he can be. Dragan was supportive, caring, and protective. He has had a terrible past and thinks he is a monster, but Maeve shows him he can still be loved.
Now that all of the warriors are freed we are getting closer to the final confrontation with Sotiris. I thought we were going to get in this book but nope. I am glad though because I want to see more of this series. I really want to see Nick get a HEA because he deserves it.
Also I really want to know Lili’s story now. She is clearly a supernatural but what kind? Clearly she has a troubled past and Nick is very protective of her. I really need to know!

Tudtam... tudtam, hogy nem kellene elolvasnom addig, míg nincs a kezemben Nicodemus könyve. Most csak fohászkodhatok, hogy D. B. Reynolds keze sebesen járjon a billentyűzeten.
Végre, mind a négy elátkozott ősi harcos szabad és együtt van a banda. [off]Na jó, tudjuk, hogy Gabriel igazából Raphaeléknél lakik, de na... amikor kell, akkor Nicóék az elsők.[/off]
Nagyon izgalmasra sikeredett Dragan könyve... igazából nem is igazán foglalkoztam a közte és Maeve között szövődő szerelemmel, mert a körülöttük folyó akció annyira izgalmas volt.
Sotiris megint igazi gonoszságon törte a fejét és bizony örültem, hogy kétszer is sikerült jól megszívnia.
Imádtam, amikor a négy harcos és a párjaik (és persze Nico) együtt voltak, mert az egész csapat annyira jó együtt. Hihetetlen az a mély összetartás, ami több, mint ezer évnyi kőbörtön és időben és térben való vándorlás után is ott van közöttük.
És most nagyon várom a végső összecsapást és Nicót valamint Antoniát. Reynolds hagyott itt a végére is jó sok rejtélyt, ami nagyon nagy piros pont neki.

Yes! Each book gets better and better in this series. I was thinking Dragan may be the last since he is the final Stone Warrior---but NO! We get Nico's story as well. So happy about that.
Dragan is perhaps the most feared of all the warriors. His looks are certainly unusual. Loved that the warrior decended of Irish kings, is freed by an Irish lady. Maeve was the perfect match for him. I loved their cross country quest to find his brothers. I really liked that Dragan was patient with Maeve and that she was just so excepting of him.
Best of the series for me. Looking forward to a stunning conclusion, I hope!

Dragan is the fourth book in the Stone Warriors series. I've loved every book in this series and this one didn't disappoint. I particularly enjoy how the author crafts the heroines' personalities. They are not shrinking violets rather equal partners to the soldiers they rescue. The muscles they may lack are replaced with intellect and courage. The story is action-packed and the chemistry is hot! This book can easily be read alone but I recommend the entire series. I can't wait for the next one!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I’m not a huge fan of PNR but this book was very well written and quite relatable. I also read out of order, so there were a few areas of the book that I obviously didn’t know of. 3 1/2 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Fourth book of the series. And wow!! as like wow!!!!
The action, are here. I cried several times each time i turn the page and I soooo love that all of them are together. Nick. well i want to know if he will have the next book or will it be Lily. I mean that girl something.
As the story of the series progress, the same with the maturity of the characters. You can see why they are brothers by choice if not fate.
The way the lessons and how each of them are bought back to life reflects our own in a way.
I cannot wait for the next book if there will be one.
